With support from the Metropolitan Tucson Convention & Visitors Bureau (MTCVB) and Tucson Pima Arts Council (TPAC), the Tucson edition of www.ShowUp.com will launch April 20, 2009. ShowUp.com is a comprehensive online calendar and ticket service for arts and cultural offerings and events. The new Tucson component will simplify and enhance the process of learning about and accessing such events in Metro Tucson and Southern Arizona. The arts community and city leaders will celebrate the launch with a commencement ceremony and press conference at 2 PM on Monday, April 20 at the Tucson Museum of Art.

ShowUp.com has been the leading resource for what's happening in theater, music, dance, art, festivals and cultural destinations throughout Greater Phoenix since its launch in November 2004. The invitation from MTCVB and TPAC for ShowUp.com to serve Metro Tucson came after a multiyear discussion and ultimate development of the 2008 Pima Cultural Plan. The inclusion of Tucson events on ShowUp.com will help to fulfill specific goals outlined in the Pima Cultural Plan by providing one comprehensive online calendar of arts and cultural events to the communities of Metro Tucson. ShowUp.com will also offer Tucson arts patrons exciting, last-minute discount ticket offers in its Chase Ticket Marketplace.

"A key recommendation articulated in the Pima Cultural Plan was a call for a comprehensive online cultural calendar that would highlight the cultural richness within Pima County. ShowUp.com offers our communities a proven and viable solution for this need," said Roberto Bedoya, Executive Director for Tucson Pima Arts Council."The Tucson launch of ShowUp.com illuminates the spirit of partnership between MTCVB, TPAC and Alliance for Audience as we work together to market and grow audiences for the diverse, innovative and abundance of cultural experiences that distinguishes Tucson."

As of the April 10 soft launch of ShowUp.com Tucson, over 200 Metro Tucson arts and cultural organizations and events will be listed. New postings and event updates will be continually made by ShowUp.com's content team as they search out Pima County events and receive event listings via email at events@showup.com.

"Tucson's arts and cultural offerings are a strong destination driver for visitors to our city and region," said Rick Vaughan, MTCVB Senior Vice President, Sales and Marketing. "ShowUp.com will be an excellent resource for visitors and locals alike to find, in one place, the dynamic elements of art, culture and attractions in Tucson. Its reputation, visibility and marketing distribution channels statewide will compliment MTCVB's efforts in communicating these valuable offerings."

"The extension of ShowUp.com to Tucson demonstrates how Arizona's arts and cultural community leads by innovation and collaboration," said Matt Lehrman, Executive Director of Alliance for Audience and ShowUp.com. "By working together, we can pursue goals that go beyond what any organization can do alone.

ShowUp.com is the signature enterprise of Alliance for Audience, a 501c3 non-profit arts service organization created in 2003, that, with the extension of services to Tucson, is transforming from regional to statewide scope. Born out of recognition of shared interests by a wide range of arts organizations and cultural destinations, Alliance for Audience provides a means of collaboration to raise mutual visibility and invite new audience participation.

The last play of the 2008-2009 season at Beowulf Alley, Proof is being directed by Sheldon Metz (Noche de los Muertos). The cast includes Jill Baker, Chris Farishon, Jonathan Northover and Roberto Guajardo, recipient of the 2008 Tucson Pima Arts Council Lumies Award for Lifetime Achievement and the Tucson Weekly 2006 "Best of Tucson" Award -- Best Performance by a Thespian.

When asked to describe the play, Director Metz said, “Proof superficially explores topics of mental stability and genius. More significantly, it's a play about character, about finding solutions to life's problems and the trust we place in these solutions, in ourselves, and in each other. The proof in Auburn's play is less about mathematics than it is about putting trust to the test. “

The April 10th preview performance is at 7:30 and the ticket price is $10. Saturday, April 11 is opening night with a post show reception to follow. Dialogues with…, a discussion session, will follow the Sunday, April 12 performance with the director, cast, designers and production team. General admission tickets are $20.

FIND HAPPINESS AT THE VALLEY OF THE MOON’S NEW SPRING SHOW

Tucson, AZ- Tucson’s historic Valley of the Moon announced today it will be opening to the public for its Spring fundraising performance THE PRINCESS BRIDE. A play sure to delight young and old during these hard economic times beginning April 3.

The play is about true love and its magical power to overcome all obstacles. The evil Prince has captured the beautiful Buttercup and is forcing her to marry him. Her heart belongs to another and only the Man In Black can save her. Edward Arriola directs the play with an all-volunteer cast. As with all Valley of the Moon performances, the play takes you on a tour of the historic fairyland made of stone and imagination.

Proceeds from this spring fundraiser will help to continue restoration of the historic structures created 85 years ago by the late George Phar Legler. Recently an architectural assessment by the firm Burns/Wald-Hopkins/Shambach was completed detailing specifics required to restoring the Legler creations and making them safe for public use.

Margaret Joplin, an award winning landscape architect, and her firm Design Collaborations, are designing improvements to the parking lot and the front area of the park without historic structures. Her plans will provide layout for a few sculptures to be relocated from the defunct Magic Carpet Golf and create improvements to enhance the magical experience of this Tucson treasure. Her specialty is working with recycled materials and native plants just as Legler utilized.

THE PRINCESS BRIDE performances will be on April 3, 4, 10, 11, 17 & 18. Show times are 6:30 and 8:00 PM those nights. The admission is $5 for adults, $3 for kids 7-13 and as always 6 and under free. Attendees will get to experience the magic of the Valley of the Moon dedicated to Kindness to All.

The Valley of the Moon is located at 2544 East Allen Road, just north of Prince Road and Tucson Blvd. For more information, call 520-323-1331 or visit http://www.tucsonvalleyofthemoon.com

Comic legend Elaine May directs her new play GEORGE IS DEAD, [title of show] makes regional premiere after Broadway run, and THE SECOND CITY DOES ARIZONA with a brand new show

Southwest Premiere of the international best-seller THE KITE RUNNER opens season, fizzy AIN'T MISBEHAVIN' brightens the holidays and THE GLASS MENAGERIE marks the third year of America Plays! Celebrating Great American Stories

Arizona Theatre Company joyously announces a season to celebrate in 2009-2010, from the profound truths of a beloved international best-seller; to a rollercoaster ride through Manhattan from one of America’s comic treasures; as well as the poetic imagination of a great American playwright; a foot-stomping visit to the jazz clubs of Harlem; or a side-splitting look at life right here in Arizona and the regional premiere of a hip new Broadway musical. The 2009-2010 Season opens with THE KITE RUNNER, Matthew Spangler’s new adaptation of Khaled Hosseini’s international best-selling novel, followed by Elaine May’s hilarious new play GEORGE IS DEAD, starring Emmy-Award-winner Marlo Thomas and the Broadway musical [title of show] making its regional debut at ATC. Tennessee Williams’ classic American play THE GLASS MENAGERIE continues the America Plays! Celebrating Great American Stories initiative and ATC travels back to 1930s Harlem with the exuberant, Tony Award-winning musical AIN’T MISBEHAVIN’. The Season closes when we turn the photo radar on our Grand Canyon state-of-mind by welcoming Chicago’s legendary comedy experts The Second City to the land of prairie dogs and snow birds for THE SECOND CITY DOES ARIZONA, OR CLOSE BUT NO SAGUARO.

"In these challenging times, ATC has made the decision to 'double-down' artistically next season with really high definition comedies, dramas and musicals," said Artistic Director David Ira Goldstein in announcing the coming season. "It's a season that looks outward to our place in the world, inwards towards our personal dreams and reaches out to our imaginations in smart, fresh, wildly entertaining ways. Next season welcomes some old friends while introducing many dazzling voices new to our stages. It will be one of our most utterly enjoyable seasons ever."

The season opens with the Southwest Premiere of the new adaptation of THE KITE RUNNER by Matthew Spangler from the best-selling novel by Khaled Hosseini. “Come see me, Amir, there is a way to be good again…” A cry for help from an old friend in a distant land lies at the heart of this powerful story of friendship, betrayal and redemption. Based on one of the most beloved books of the last decade, THE KITE RUNNER is told through the lives of two boys, Amir and Hassan, growing up in Afghanistan in the same household, but in two starkly different worlds. When the innocence of the boys’ childhood is confronted with the brutality of prejudice and hate, Amir begins a journey of self discovery and enlightenment that will take him far from his home and the demons of his youth. But fate, global politics and historical tragedy threaten his ability to make amends for his past. A bracing look at the modern world, The Kite Runner shows us the human face beneath the headline news. Directed by ATC Artistic Director David Ira Goldstein who recently directed the play’s world premiere, THE KITE RUNNER runs from September 10 through October 3, 2009 in Tucson and October 8 through October 25, 2009 in Phoenix.

The season continues with a madcap new romp from a comic genius, GEORGE IS DEAD. Love, death, politics and classes collide wildly in this boisterous new comedy both written and directed by two-time Academy Award nominee and legend Elaine May. Uptown, George is rich and Doreen is helpless. Downtown, Michael is disillusioned and Carla is the capable one. When a bogus bomb scare in the New York subway starts a fatal series of events in motion, the lives (and deaths) of this unlikely quartet intersect for one night in a one-bedroom walkup in the middle of Manhattan. As worlds collide over a turbulent 24-hours, circumstances teach each of the addled urbanites about their inability to save the world. Starring Emmy Award-winner Marlo Thomas, GEORGE IS DEAD combines whimsical wit with tart social commentary in a story of urban living, sudden death and learning to use the remote control. GEORGE IS DEAD runs from October 17 through November 7, 2009 in Tucson and November 12 through December 6, 2009 in Phoenix.

Bright lights. Glamorous gowns. And finger-snapping, toe-tappin’ music. The joint is jumpin’ and we’re taking misbehavin’ to a whole new level! Travel back to Harlem’s sassy, swinging ‘30s with this riveting, Tony Award-winning musical AIN’T MISBEHAVIN’—exuberantly performed by a quintet of irresistible talents. Spend a joyous evening partying with one of the greatest jazz songwriters of all time, Thomas “Fats” Waller. A composer and pianist with a legendary lust for life, he created jubilant melodies, soulful ballads and gleeful love songs like I’m Gonna Sit Right Down and Write Myself a Letter, Honeysuckle Rose, I Can’t Give You Anything but Love and, of course, Ain’t Misbehavin’. This is one show that may just bring the house down! One never knows … do one? Directed by Kent Gash (Five Guys Named Moe), AIN’T MISBEHAVIN’runs from November 28 through December 19, 2009 in Tucson and December 30, 2009 through January 17, 2010 in Phoenix.

Imagine two hyper-talented young songwriters in New York trying to write a new musical about two hyper-talented young songwriters in New York trying to write a new musical…! That’s [title of show], the deliciously smart and tuneful musical that wowed Broadway audiences and critics last fall. It’s a dizzy, unpredictable, and uproarious tongue-in-cheek musical about show business and making one’s dreams come true. Follow Jeff, Hunter, Heidi and Susan as they negotiate a musical theatre obstacle course of finding backers, casting singers, and making it to Broadway. Fresh, funny and playful, [title of show] is a Cinderella tale set to music about the journey from the unemployment line to the Great White Way. The New York Times called [title of show] "Delectable entertainment! Hilarious! A fresh new musical worth cheering." Staged by the same team that brought you the recent smash hit Hair, [title of show] will be directed by David Ira Goldstein with choreography by Patti Wilcox and musical direction by Christopher McGovern. [title of show] runs from January 23 through February 13, 2010 in Tucson and February 18 through March 7, 2010 in Phoenix.

The third installment of ATC’s passionately embraced America Plays! Celebrating Great American Stories initiative is Tennessee Williams’ THE GLASS MENAGERIE. In the 1930s in a small tenement apartment in St. Louis, the Wingfield family awaits your visit. The mother Amanda lives in an illusion of recapturing her faded Southern Belle glory, her daughter Laura lives in a fantasy world of delicate glass figurines, and her son Tom dreams poetically of a world beyond the back stoop. When Tom brings home a Gentleman Caller to meet his sister, THE GLASS MENAGERIE weaves these lives into a heart-stopping dance of hopes pursued and dreams betrayed. Considered by many to be Tennessee Williams’ greatest play, THE GLASS MENAGERIE is an achingly beautiful story of longing and love that has touched generations of theatergoers with its sparkling, delicate radiance. Past America Plays! productions include To Kill A Mockingbird and A Raisin in the Sun. This unique initiative is designed to engage audiences both through the onstage performance and community activities designed to enhance the understanding of this classic play. THE GLASS MENAGERIE runs from February 27 through March 20, 2010 in Tucson and March 25 through April 11, 2010 in Phoenix.

Talk about a stimulus package! ATC’s 2009-2010 Season concludes with the comedic pizzazz of THE SECOND CITY DOES ARIZONA, OR CLOSE BUT NO SAGUARO. From sagebrush to Sheriff Joe, from Green Valley to kokopelli– it’s time to batten down the barrel cactus because we’ve invited The Second City to Arizona to do a no-holds-barred world premiere comedy revue all about us. Famous for their hilarious sketch comedy and for their equally famous alumni (Tina Fey, Steve Carell, Stephen Colbert, Bill Murray, John Belushi, Gilda Radner and a whole slew of others), The Second City is turning their photo radar on the Grand Canyon State, and aiming their tee-shots at the land of prairie dogs and snow birds. We’re joining with this troupe of expert Chicago comedians to create a brand new comedy revue about the special challenges of the high life in the low desert. It’s a guaranteed evening of recession-proof fun and high-mileage laughter. THE SECOND CITY DOES ARIZONA, OR CLOSE BUT NO SAGUARO runs from April 3 through April 24, 2010 in Tucson and April 29 through May 16, 2010 in Phoenix.
